Clinical Description OMIM Eyssen et al. (1972) reported 2 infant brothers with intrahepatic cholestasis and partial atresia of the intrahepatic bile ducts who died at ages 4 and 6 months, respectively. Analysis of bile acids of 1 child showed increased levels ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In an infant with a defect in bile acid synthesis and increased levels of THCA, Setchell et al. (2003) identified a homozygous mutation in the AMACR gene (604489.0001). An earlier-born affected sib, who died at age 6 months, ...
